Apple Seeded Mac OS X 10.5.7 build 9J27 to Developers.

It seems that Apple’s Leopard team is working hard at the work. Last week they seeded OS X 10.5.7 build 9J22 and today WorldofApple reported that the latest build 9J27 is floating between developers. The Build tag 9J27 — could change at any time. Snow Leopard 10.6 is expected sometime around mid-year, it is quite possible that 10.5.7 will be the last update to Leopard before 10.6 arrives. But we not mean there won’t be a 10.5.8 🙂 Those people familiar with the software also mentioned a significant focus on addressing syncing issues that have plagued many of Leopard’s standard, forward-facing apps, such as as Mail, AddressBook, and system preferences. According to World of Apple The latest build (9J27) asks for developers to focus on over 20 areas in the operating system including, AFP, AirPort, MobileMe Syncing, Printing, Screen Sharing, USB, X11 and more more. here we have the seed notes of build 9J27 as published by World Of Apple.
